**[00:01] ---**
As long as modern-day
crimes involve people,
**[00:04] ---**
there are no
unsolvable mysteries!
**[00:06] ---**
Today's case is a train trick!
**[00:08] ---**
Schedules are
the basis of judgment!
**[00:10] ---**
He sees the
single truth for what it is,
**[00:12] ---**
and looks like a kid
but has the mind of an adult!
**[00:14] ---**
His name? Detective Conan!

**[01:51] ---**
The Train Trick Murder Case.
**[01:57] ---**
Yu-no-Yama (Mountain Hot Spring Town)
**[02:02] ---**
Yu-no-Yama Station
**[02:04] ---**
Dad! Hurry!
**[02:06] ---**
Where're we going?
Aren't we getting on this?
**[02:09] ---**
No, this is the Hana-no-Machi Line.
**[02:12] ---**
We're riding the one up
there, the Yu-no-Yama Line.
**[02:16] ---**
It doesn't matter which one we take--
**[02:19] ---**
both lines connect
to a Tokyo-bound line
**[02:21] ---**
at Hana-no-Machi
Station anyways...
**[02:23] ---**
We'll miss the train
if we don't hurry!
**[02:26] ---**
My head's pounding
from this hangover...
**[02:29] ---**
Don't shout so loud...
**[02:35] ---**
Ugh. I don't feel up to this...
**[02:50] ---**
That was fun!
**[02:52] ---**
The food, the inn, and
the hot spring were all great!
**[02:55] ---**
Don't you agree, Conan-*kun*?
**[02:56] ---**
Yeah!
**[02:58] ---**
Thanks, Dad!
**[03:01] ---**
One of your clients invited you on this trip
**[03:04] ---**
as a reward for
solving their case!
**[03:08] ---**
Yeah...
**[03:09] ---**
Though I'm the one
who solved the case, not him...
**[03:13] ---**
I'm gonna sleep for an hour
until we get to Hana-no-Machi.
**[03:17] ---**
What the hell?!
**[03:20] ---**
What's your problem, Sato?!
**[03:22] ---**
What's the matter?
You don't need to get so mad...
**[03:27] ---**
You disgust me!
**[03:28] ---**
I can't bear to sit
with you any more!
**[03:31] ---**
I'm going to a different car!
**[03:32] ---**
Hey, Date!
**[03:37] ---**
Aren't they--
**[03:39] ---**
Yeah, they stayed at the
same inn as us last night.
**[03:46] ---**
Kan'etsu Medical Association
**[03:53] ---**
Pardon me...
**[03:55] ---**
Ah, that group of doctors...
**[03:58] ---**
Hello!
**[03:59] ---**
Oh, you're from last night...
**[04:02] ---**
Did something happen?
**[04:04] ---**
No, he's just upset.
**[04:07] ---**
Where are the other doctors?
**[04:09] ---**
We all left separately.
**[04:11] ---**
Some took the Hana-no-Machi Line
**[04:13] ---**
while others took the
Yu-no-Yama Line like us.
**[04:15] ---**
Both lines end at
Hana-no-Machi Station anyway.
**[04:19] ---**
Well, then. Nighty-night.
**[04:32] ---**
Mizu-no-Kawa! Mizu-no-Kawa!
**[04:39] ---**
Huh? Mizu-no-Kawa Station?
**[04:41] ---**
Oh, it says we can transfer.
**[04:44] ---**
Maybe we should transfer
to the Hana-no-Machi Line here?
**[04:48] ---**
Bzzt! Too bad!
**[04:50] ---**
The Hana-no-Machi train
arrived here at exactly 10:30.
**[04:53] ---**
That was five minutes ago.
It's long gone by now.
**[04:56] ---**
Bah.
**[05:10] ---**
Sorry to disturb you.
Tickets, please.
**[05:14] ---**
Here you go.
**[05:16] ---**
Thanks, little boy!
**[05:21] ---**
Mizu-no-Kawa Station
**[05:22] ---**
Yu-no-Yama Line
Hana-no-Machi Line
**[05:28] ---**
Hana-no-Machi Station
**[05:30] ---**
Thank you for using
the Yu-no-Yama Line today.
**[05:33] ---**
This is our last stop,
Hana-no-Machi Station.
**[05:36] ---**
Please look around once more to
avoid forgetting anything onboard.
**[05:40] ---**
Passengers transferring
to the Tokyo-bound train
**[05:42] ---**
will need to switch to Platform 7.
**[05:43] ---**
The next train will leave at 11:40.
**[05:50] ---**
Thirty-five minutes of waiting...
**[05:53] ---**
Hey! Sato-*kun*!
**[05:56] ---**
Sorry about earlier.
**[05:58] ---**
I calmed down after looking at
the scenery from the very last car.
**[06:02] ---**
I thought you might!
**[06:04] ---**
Sorry 'bout that!
**[06:07] ---**
Sounds like they made up!
**[06:09] ---**
Yeah!
**[06:11] ---**
Here you are.
**[06:12] ---**
Thanks.
**[06:13] ---**
Here you go.
**[06:20] ---**
He sure has a lot of change...
**[06:24] ---**
Well, it was nice to meet you...
**[06:26] ---**
Likewise!
**[06:30] ---**
Hey, Mister! Your button's
about to come off!
**[06:35] ---**
Oh, it's fine.
**[06:40] ---**
He wiped it! How odd...
**[06:44] ---**
Where was the body found?!
**[06:47] ---**
Inside the Hana-no-Machi
train that arrived five minutes ago!
**[06:49] ---**
The victim appears to be a doctor!
**[06:52] ---**
What if it's a
doctor from our group?!
**[06:55] ---**
Everyone did leave by themselves--
**[06:57] ---**
one of them could have been
on the Hana-no-Machi Line!
**[06:59] ---**
Let's check it out!
**[07:00] ---**
Yeah!
**[07:04] ---**
I'm going too.
**[07:06] ---**
Dad! What about your hangover?
**[07:08] ---**
It's long gone.
**[07:10] ---**
I can't stay silent after
hearing there's a dead body.
**[07:12] ---**
Detective Kogoro Mori's
excitement has been piqued!
**[07:28] ---**
It's Utsumi-*kun*!
**[07:31] ---**
So he was in your
medical association?
**[07:34] ---**
It's Utsumi-*kun*.
He was with us last night.
**[07:40] ---**
What's with that look?!
**[07:45] ---**
I'm Chief Railway Officer,
Yosuke Kobayashi.
**[07:50] ---**
It's an honor to meet you,
Detective Mori!
**[07:53] ---**
Your cooperation is
greatly appreciated!
**[07:55] ---**
No problem. I'm glad to help.
**[08:03] ---**
So, what was the cause of death?
**[08:05] ---**
We won't know for
sure until the autopsy,
**[08:07] ---**
but my guess is cardiac arrest.
**[08:09] ---**
If so, I'm of no use here.
**[08:12] ---**
Say, isn't that a syringe mark?
**[08:16] ---**
You keep quiet! Wait, a syringe?
**[08:19] ---**
Look at the vein on his arm.
**[08:21] ---**
There's a needle
mark with blood on it.
**[08:25] ---**
A mark from a hypodermic needle?
**[08:28] ---**
There's no doubt about it.
**[08:29] ---**
When intravenously given high
doses of potassium chloride,
**[08:33] ---**
people can die with
symptoms just like cardiac arrest.
**[08:37] ---**
Shut up!
**[08:38] ---**
Hospitals have potassium
chloride and syringes, right?
**[08:43] ---**
Wow. You sure know a lot, little boy!
**[08:47] ---**
I really like science stuff!
**[08:49] ---**
That was close!
**[08:52] ---**
But I don't see
any syringes anywhere...
**[08:56] ---**
Which means...
**[08:57] ---**
This was neither
an accident nor a suicide!
**[08:59] ---**
It was a homicide! A murder!
**[09:02] ---**
Why, you...
**[09:03] ---**
You're in the way! Go outside!
**[09:05] ---**
Alright!
**[09:06] ---**
Now, then. The question is motive.
**[09:09] ---**
It was a simple robbery.
**[09:11] ---**
There's not a
single yen left in his wallet.
**[09:14] ---**
And why are his fingers broken?
**[09:17] ---**
The killer was macho!
**[09:19] ---**
The killer held him down
so hard that it broke his fingers,
**[09:21] ---**
prevented him from fighting back,
and then committed the crime!
**[09:26] ---**
Would they really go through
the trouble of giving him a shot
**[09:28] ---**
just for that?!
**[09:30] ---**
The Hana-no-Machi line runs
parallel to the Yu-no-Yama line,
**[09:32] ---**
which we took.
**[09:35] ---**
The Yu-no-Yama
and Mizu-no-Kawa stations
**[09:37] ---**
are the only places they meet.
**[09:39] ---**
The train this happened on
**[09:41] ---**
stopped at Mizu-no-Kawa
Station at 10:30.
**[09:45] ---**
The question is
the time of the murder...
**[09:47] ---**
So the victim bought the
canned coffee at around 10:50?
**[09:52] ---**
Yes.
**[09:53] ---**
We had almost arrived
at Hana-no-Machi,
**[09:56] ---**
and he was my last customer...
**[09:58] ---**
I didn't have any 1000-yen
bills to give him change with,
**[10:00] ---**
so I gave him his change in coins,
which is why I remember him.
**[10:06] ---**
Was he sitting
by himself at the time?
**[10:10] ---**
Yes.
**[10:12] ---**
And immediately afterward,
**[10:13] ---**
a mustached-man in a dark blue
jacket and sunglasses sat next to him,
**[10:17] ---**
so you got up and left.
**[10:21] ---**
Yes.
**[10:22] ---**
A dark blue jacket?!
**[10:25] ---**
So the crime took place between
10:50 and 10:52 or 10:53.
**[10:32] ---**
That Dr. Date's
jacket is reversible!
**[10:35] ---**
The other side is dark blue!
**[10:39] ---**
Maybe his button
was about to come off
**[10:41] ---**
because the victim had grabbed it?!
**[10:44] ---**
He broke his fingers
trying to remove it!
**[10:48] ---**
So that's why he--
**[10:49] ---**
There's no doubt about it!
**[10:51] ---**
He wiped the front of the button
**[10:53] ---**
to remove the victim's fingerprints!
**[10:56] ---**
And the victim died from an
injection of potassium chloride,
**[10:59] ---**
which would be difficult
for anyone but a doctor to get!
**[11:02] ---**
Plus his reaction when
he heard the old man's name!
**[11:05] ---**
Dr. Date's probably the one responsible!
**[11:08] ---**
But how could he have killed
someone on a different train?!
**[11:18] ---**
Say, aren't you
going to do your job?
**[11:20] ---**
Of course not.
**[11:22] ---**
They've got a search
out for the robber.
**[11:23] ---**
My job here is done.
**[11:26] ---**
But was this really a robbery?
**[11:30] ---**
What do you mean, Conan-*kun*?
**[11:31] ---**
That witness lady seems
a lot richer than the victim.
**[11:37] ---**
And she was sitting nearby, right?
**[11:40] ---**
Why would the killer go after
the man instead of the woman?
**[11:45] ---**
That's a good question...
**[11:48] ---**
That is strange...
**[11:50] ---**
Say, why do you suppose
that guy's sweating so much?
**[11:54] ---**
Dr. Sato.
**[11:56] ---**
You wouldn't happen to
know something, would you?
**[11:59] ---**
Eh? No, not really...
**[12:02] ---**
I don't mind.
Tell him, Sato-*kun*.
**[12:05] ---**
Tell him that I had a big argument
with Utsumi at the inn yesterday.
**[12:12] ---**
An argument? With the victim?
**[12:14] ---**
Is this true?!
**[12:16] ---**
Yeah. It was a big one, too.
**[12:18] ---**
What caused it?
**[12:20] ---**
An unfounded accusation...
**[12:23] ---**
...that I was receiving kickbacks
from a pharmaceutical company.
**[12:27] ---**
Of course, I'm completely innocent.
**[12:31] ---**
Oh, man. You don't seriously
think I killed him, do you?
**[12:34] ---**
No, nothing of the sort.
**[12:36] ---**
It's clear that you and the
victim were on different trains
**[12:40] ---**
from what Mori-*san
*and the others have said.
**[12:44] ---**
Yes, Dr. Date does have an alibi.
**[12:50] ---**
Say, why did you
take the Yu-no-Yama Line
**[12:52] ---**
instead of the Hana-no-Machi Line?
**[12:54] ---**
I could have ridden either one,
**[12:57] ---**
but Dr. Date bought me the ticket, so...
**[13:00] ---**
Then what was
that argument earlier?
**[13:02] ---**
I tried to pay
him back for my ticket,
**[13:05] ---**
but he refused to accept my money.
**[13:07] ---**
He suddenly got angry
when I insisted he take it...
**[13:11] ---**
I didn't know what to
think when he blew up like that...
**[13:14] ---**
So Dr. Date suggested
taking the Yu-no-Yama Line
**[13:16] ---**
and then faked an argument
to move to the rear car...
**[13:22] ---**
Hey, Ran.
Can I see the train schedule?
**[13:24] ---**
The train schedule? Sure.
**[13:27] ---**
Here you are!
**[13:28] ---**
Thanks!
**[13:30] ---**
If he had transferred
to the Hana-no-Machi Line...
**[13:36] ---**
...Mizu-no-Kawa Station
would be the only place to do it!
**[13:40] ---**
But the Hana-no-Machi
train the victim was on
**[13:43] ---**
arrived at Mizu-no-Kawa
Station at 10:30.
**[13:47] ---**
Our Yu-no-Yama train
arrived five minutes later.
**[13:52] ---**
The Hana-no-Machi train
was long gone by then!
**[13:55] ---**
Maybe he couldn't
have done it after all?
**[13:57] ---**
Wait a second! Didn't it say--
**[14:00] ---**
The Yu-no-Yama Line is Line 1.
**[14:02] ---**
The Hana-no-Machi Line is Line 6.
**[14:04] ---**
An overpass connects
Platforms 3 and 4.
**[14:10] ---**
The stairs are right
next to the rear car,
**[14:12] ---**
which Dr. Date had all to himself!
**[14:17] ---**
Hey. Sounds like I'll
be held up a little bit longer.
**[14:20] ---**
Can you close
the office up for today?
**[14:23] ---**
Great. Thanks.
**[14:25] ---**
A phone?
**[14:27] ---**
A cell phone!
**[14:28] ---**
Oh no! I left Sonoko's
present on the train!
**[14:34] ---**
That's it!
**[14:36] ---**
Now I understand the trick
Dr. Date used to switch trains!
**[14:46] ---**
Come on.
**[14:49] ---**
If you forgot something,
then ask Ran!
**[14:52] ---**
No! It's the killer
I want you to find!
**[15:00] ---**
Oh? Is it my hangover?
**[15:07] ---**
Thank you so much!
**[15:09] ---**
This is Kogoro Mori.
**[15:11] ---**
Would those involved please
assemble in the staff room?
**[15:15] ---**
Dad!
**[15:16] ---**
I've identified the real person
responsible for this incident.
**[15:20] ---**
Dr. Date and Dr. Sato.
Please come as well.
**[15:24] ---**
The real person responsible?!
**[15:26] ---**
It wasn't a robbery?
**[15:31] ---**
We're busy, you know.
**[15:34] ---**
What is this all about, Mori-*san*?
**[15:36] ---**
Don't worry, the truth will become
clear in only fifteen minutes.
**[15:41] ---**
You're saying you'll point out
the killer and have him arrested
**[15:44] ---**
in those fifteen minutes?
**[15:46] ---**
Indeed, I am, Dr. Date.
**[15:51] ---**
In other words, you're going
to try to arrest me.
**[15:53] ---**
Yes. The real person
responsible for this incident
**[15:56] ---**
is you, Dr. Date!
**[15:58] ---**
What?!
**[15:59] ---**
No way!
**[16:00] ---**
But, Dad!
**[16:02] ---**
He was on the same
Yu-no-Yama train as us!
**[16:05] ---**
We can only confirm that for the first
five minutes after the train departed.
**[16:10] ---**
We didn't see him again until we
arrived at Hana-no-Machi Station.
**[16:14] ---**
That's true...
**[16:16] ---**
Did he transfer?
**[16:17] ---**
Yes. At Mizu-no-Kawa Station.
**[16:20] ---**
At Mizu-no-Kawa?
**[16:22] ---**
But isn't that impossible, time-wise?
**[16:25] ---**
Take a good look.
**[16:26] ---**
The Yu-no-Yama train arrived on
Platform 1 of Mizu-no-Kawa Station
**[16:32] ---**
at 10:35.
**[16:34] ---**
Long after the Hana-no-Machi
train on Platform 6 had left!
**[16:39] ---**
How could I have
possibly transferred trains?!
**[16:41] ---**
A single phone call
would make it possible.
**[16:46] ---**
A phone call?
**[16:48] ---**
If you call from a cell
phone one train stop ahead
**[16:50] ---**
and ask them to hold
the Hana-no-Machi train
**[16:54] ---**
because you left something on it...
**[17:00] ---**
10:35.
**[17:02] ---**
Before you arrived
at Mizu-no-Kawa Station,
**[17:04] ---**
you turned your
reversible jacket inside-out
**[17:07] ---**
and disguised yourself with
a fake mustache and other props.
**[17:12] ---**
When you arrived at the station,
**[17:14] ---**
you ran up the overpass
**[17:15] ---**
and headed for
Line 6 as fast as possible.
**[17:19] ---**
That's why you started
an argument with Dr. Sato
**[17:21] ---**
and moved to the last car
immediately after the train departed.
**[17:26] ---**
You had the train employees
search for a missing item
**[17:28] ---**
to delay the Hana-no-Machi
train's departure,
**[17:30] ---**
allowing you to
get on in the nick of time.
**[17:34] ---**
You had probably
instructed the victim to sit there
**[17:37] ---**
before you killed him.
**[17:41] ---**
I see.
**[17:43] ---**
Mori-*san*'s right; there was
both a phone call and a search.
**[17:46] ---**
The man was distressed because
he had forgotten a contract
**[17:48] ---**
more important than his life,
**[17:51] ---**
but it never turned up.
**[17:53] ---**
Wow. But how exactly is that proof?
**[17:57] ---**
Was the call recorded and
voice-matched with my voice?
**[18:01] ---**
Get serious!
**[18:03] ---**
I was on the Yu-no-Yama
train the whole time.
**[18:06] ---**
Then please show us your ticket.
**[18:09] ---**
Ticket inspection took place on
the Yu-no-Yama train at around 10:40.
**[18:14] ---**
If you didn't transfer,
then it should have a stamp.
**[18:19] ---**
Can we see your ticket, Date-*san*?
**[18:22] ---**
Sorry, but I lost it.
**[18:24] ---**
You lost it?!
**[18:26] ---**
Would you like to do a body search?
**[18:30] ---**
Basically, there's no proof
I was on the train the entire time,
**[18:32] ---**
but there's no proof
I transferred, either.
**[18:35] ---**
"Innocent before proven guilty."
**[18:39] ---**
Right, Detective?
**[18:42] ---**
Sorry, but I can't waste
any more time here.
**[18:44] ---**
I'm busy.
**[18:45] ---**
Which platform for
the train to Tokyo, again?
**[18:49] ---**
Mori-*san*...
**[18:53] ---**
Dr. Date.
**[18:59] ---**
Is there still something left?
**[19:00] ---**
You certainly had a
lot of change in your wallet.
**[19:09] ---**
So?
**[19:10] ---**
It's entirely possible that
the killer took the victim's money
**[19:14] ---**
from his wallet--
including all of his change--
**[19:17] ---**
to make it look like a robbery.
**[19:22] ---**
What's your point?
**[19:23] ---**
The fingerprints.
**[19:26] ---**
Sorry, but Utsumi-*kun
*was with me last night.
**[19:31] ---**
We both chipped
in to buy cigarettes,
**[19:34] ---**
so it wouldn't be that
odd to find his fingerprints
**[19:38] ---**
on the money inside my wallet.
**[19:40] ---**
He's right, Mori-*san*!
**[19:43] ---**
No.
**[19:45] ---**
I'm not referring to
the victim's fingerprints.
**[19:48] ---**
What?!
**[19:51] ---**
What do you mean?
Whose fingerprints would there be?
**[19:56] ---**
Think back.
**[19:58] ---**
Right before he was murdered,
**[19:59] ---**
the victim bought canned
coffee from the onboard vendor.
**[20:02] ---**
He was the last customer,
and he pulled out a 10,000-yen bill,
**[20:06] ---**
so the vendor remembers him!
**[20:13] ---**
Yes. That train
vendor's fingerprints.
**[20:20] ---**
Dr. Date.
**[20:22] ---**
The fingerprints of the vendor
on the Hana-no-Machi train,
**[20:24] ---**
which you supposedly weren't on.
**[20:29] ---**
If they happen to be on
any of the coins in your wallet...
**[20:52] ---**
So the rumor really was true?
**[20:55] ---**
Yes! It's true!
**[20:58] ---**
I was receiving kickbacks!
**[21:02] ---**
Then he caught me and
tried to blackmail me!
**[21:06] ---**
He demanded money.
**[21:08] ---**
He said if I didn't pay up,
it would become more than a rumor.
**[21:11] ---**
He threatened to send
incriminating photographs
**[21:13] ---**
to my medical association
and the hospital I work at!
**[21:15] ---**
That's when I decided to
agree to a deal to get the film
**[21:20] ---**
and kill him on the train!
**[21:22] ---**
I found it hard to believe he
would hand over all the negatives!
**[21:26] ---**
Plus--
**[21:27] ---**
Someday the rumor would
become the target of investigation.
**[21:30] ---**
So instead, you planned to
use an alibi trick involving trains
**[21:36] ---**
to avoid suspicion.
**[21:39] ---**
It was the perfect plan!
**[21:41] ---**
Like all of my big operations!
**[21:44] ---**
Even the most skilled
physicians are human.
**[21:47] ---**
Unfortunate as it may be,
even they make bad diagnoses!
**[21:50] ---**
People are imperfect-- no crime
they commit will ever be flawless!
**[23:31] ---**
What a nice nap...
**[23:34] ---**
Hana-no-Machi?
**[23:36] ---**
Why are we still here, again?
**[23:38] ---**
Since we're already here,
let's stay another night at a hot spring!
**[23:42] ---**
Hana-no-Machi Hot Spring!
**[23:44] ---**
Another night?!
**[23:45] ---**
Sounds great! Let's do that!
**[23:47] ---**
Wait a minute, Dad!
**[23:49] ---**
But another night
does sound like fun!
**[23:51] ---**
Hurray!
**[24:12] ---**
Here we go!
**[24:13] ---**
It's not much, but there's
a fresh scratch mark here
**[24:15] ---**
from something thin!
**[24:21] ---**
I thought so!
**[24:22] ---**
No question about it!
This was a murder, not an accident!
